Default Another highway "jumper" - this one in Atlanta - 03-07-2006, 04:12 PM

I wonder if this woman is related to Zoner's jumper ....

FYI - "Spaghetti Junction" is the name of an "intersection" in Atlanta where two of the major highways cross. (click here for picture - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaghetti_ ... Georgia%29 ....[EDIT] not sure the link is working ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Spag ... tionGA.jpg). The dang thing has four levels of roads criss-crossing each other - the highest level is ninty feet. I'm not sure which one she jumped from.


Woman apparently jumps from Spaghetti Junction

A woman was in critical condition after apparently jumping from a Spaghetti Junction overpass during the Tuesday afternoon rush hour.

DeKalb police Sgt. Charles Dedrick said the woman, who was not immediately identified, was found in the left lane of I-285 westbound under an I-85 overpass about 4:30 p.m. She was taken to a hospital.

One westbound lane of the interstate remained closed at 5:15 p.m.
